Now that I have the celiac diagnosis, the puzzle starts to click together. Many symptoms that bothered me start to make sense now. I used to feel like a candidate for an early Alzheimer's mentally, and like a future MS diagnosis physically, and I would just tell myself I needed to stop being such a hypochondriac. Then things got worse. You know, the "I told you I was sick!" writing on a gravestone type of worse. :) And now I understand why I was feeling so awful for so long.

But I still think, maybe I was imagining things?

So I thought I should ask here and get a reality check. Let's see what is really going on.

Me to. In additon to the issues I checked I also had ataxia, problems with balance. I know what you mean about dementia, I had times when I would forget where my keys went into the car. I couldn't tell someone to bring me anything as simple as a fork and know that word would come out of my mouth. There was a lot of pointing and 'thingys' back then. I have improved a great deal but do still have problems at times with getting words out. It's like reading from a script with half the words blanked out.

You need to look into vitamin B12 defiency from Celiac and/or Pernicious Anemia.

Lucky, today the sublingual B12 vitamins are thought to be as effective as the shots.

Yep, I'm B-12ing myself for sure! But it's truly amazing how much damage it can do.

PS. I can't see this topic in the forums - does it mean it has to be pinned to appear?

      Coeliac and Thyroid?

      By Peace lily · Posted

      Thank you ,it’s been a long road for me for having both now ,what upsets the most is that if they discovered that I also have cealiac earlier I would not have injested gluten if I was aware. Double whammy.

      Some interesting articles regarding the use of Zinc Carnosine to help heal gastric ulcers, gastritis and intestinal permeability. I would consult a medical professional about it's use. https://www.nature.com/articles/ncpgasthep0778 https://www.rupahealth.com/post/clinical-applications-of-zinc-carnosine---evidence-review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7146259/ https://www.fallbrookmedicalcenter.com/zinc-l-carnosine-benefits-dosage-and-safety/

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.
